Description
本研究は,倦怠感を有する終末期がん患者が,「倦怠感のある自分を分かってもらえた」と認識する看護師の共感的態度を明らかにすることを目的としている.倦怠感を有する終末期がん患者6名に対し,参加観察法と半構造化面接法を用いてデータ収集し,質的記述的分析を行った.
分析した結果,144のコードが得られ,最終的に18のサブカテゴリーから,【さりげなく自分の意思や自尊心を大事にしてくれる】【気力を奪う今後の成り行きへの不安に寄り添ってくれる】【言い辛い本心を汲み取って代弁してくれる】【どんな時でも一生懸命に気遣ってくれる】【多くを話さなくても倦怠感の変化を理解してくれる】【専門的な知識と経験から責任あるケアをしてくれる】の6つのカテゴリーが抽出された.
これより,看護師の共感的態度の特徴として,“苦痛が重ならぬように取り除こうとする専心” と“緩和ケアゆえの熟練した看護実践力” が推察された.
Description Alternative
The purpose of this study was to characterize nurses’ empathic attitudes towards end-stage cancer patients with fatigue. Data were collected from six end-stage cancer patients with fatigue through participant observation and semi-structured interviews, and qualitatively and descriptively analyzed. Through analysis, 144 codes and 18 subcategories were identified, which were classified into six categories :[ respecting patients’ will and self-esteem in a natural manner],[ being considerate of patients’ anxiety about the future that drains their energy], [sympathizing with patients’ true feelings that are difficult to express and speaking for them], [caring about patients as much as possible at all times], [understanding changes in patients’ conditions even without much complaint from them], and[ providing responsible care based on one’s professional knowledge and experience]. Based on these categories, nurses’ empathic attitudes may be characterized as “dedication to try to remove the pain so that it does not overlap” and “high nursing competence based on palliative care experience”.
